Other non-color coded roadways will be
evaluated and the Minnesota Bikeways maps
will be updated as information becomes
available. Gravel and other non-paved
roads are not evaluated (and are not color-
coded) because their surfaces are not conducive to extensive bicycle travel.
Controlled-access roads are color-coded for
identification purposes only and have not
been evaluated because bicycle usage is
prohibited.

(corner of Main and Bridge Streets), Wabasha: one of the earliest hotels built
in this area, the Hurd House was erected in 1856 and is still operating as a
hotel. It has been owned by the same family for four generations. Built of
solid brick, it has 45 rooms and is in the process of being restored to its
original beauty and will be filled with antique period furnishings.
Lock and Dam Number Five, on the Mississippi River, north of Minnesota
City: this lock and dam site is part of a system of locks and dams which permit navigation on the Upper Mississippi River through varying slopes and
levels of water. There is an observation area where visitors can see the lock
operations, and many public parks with water accesses are located nearby.
Weaver Mercantile Building (Noble Studio and Gallery now), highways 61
and 74, Weaver: this is a two-story brick commercial building constructed in
1875 in the Italianate style of architecture. The interior has been extensively
altered and is now an art gallery.
Captain Alexander A. Arnold Farm, Route 2, Galesville, Wisconsin: this farm
was built on five acres of land in 1874. It was designed by the Captain to
resemble his childhood home in Duchess County, New York. The house is
constructed in red brick, Italianate architecture and is situated on a beautiful,
elevated site overlooking the river.*
Fugina House, 348 South Main Street, Fountain City, Wisconsin: the Fugina
House, built in 1916, is one of only two Prairie School houses in Buffalo

trees. Built of dark Roman brick and rough sawn western cedar, the house
and landscape blend together in strong horizontal patterns.*
Frederick Laue House, 1111 South Main Street, Alma, Wisconsin: this home
was built in 1866 by Minnesota architect Charles Maybury, known for his
simplicity and grace of design. This house is considered one of the finest
remaining examples of the domestic Italianate style of Victorian architecture.*
Little House Wayside, seven miles northwest of Pepin on Wisconsin State
Highway 183: this wayside park marks the birthplace of Laura Ingalls Wilder,
author of the "Little House" books. Visitors can view an informational display as well as a log cabin which is similar to the Ingalls' original house.
Saint John the Baptist Catholic Church, on highway 10 in Plum City, Wisconsin: the first frame structure was built in 1885 for 50 families. In 1902
a structure for 400 worshippers was built with locally quarried stone and
locally produced bricks. The church overlooks Plum Creek Valley.
Sherman House, 301 South Main Street, Alma, Wisconsin: this red brick
structure was built as a hotel in 1866 during the brief boom period in Alma.
It served as a hotel until 1900. Today it is used as a residence and is being
restored for use as a museum.*
Tester and Polin, 215 North Main Street, Alma, Wisconsin: built in 1861 of
red brick as a commercial building, this structure is now Riverside Gallery.
Since the turn of the century, it has been a post office, library, restaurant,
dental office, and now an antique shop and retail store.
Tomb of Princess Marinuka, off Trempealeau county road "T" near Galesville, Wisconsin: Princess Marinuka died in 1884 at the age of 82, the last of
a noble Winnebago family which included her grandfather, the famous Chief
Decorah. The princess is buried in a teepee-shaped concrete tomb near the
shores of Lake Marinuka.
